This new system allows for control of the
rebound and compression damping by means of
two external adjusters, as well as of the spring
preload.
• Through the extension adjuster you can
control the fork’s rebound speed following
compression. By turning the adjuster
clockwise, you increase the hydraulic
damping making the fork slower during the
rebound phase. By turning the adjuster
counterclockwise, you reduce the hydraulic
damping making the fork more reactive during
the rebound phase.
• The compression adjustment is made
through a speed sensitive valve located at the
bottom of the right leg. By turning the adjuster
clockwise, you increase the hydraulic
damping during the compression phase. By
turning the adjuster counterclockwise, you
reduce the hydraulic damping during the
compression phase.
• On models Z1 and 66 the preload is adjusted
by changing the positive air, while on models
888 this is made through the adjustment ring
located at the top of the fork’s leg. By
changing the preload, the fork will be more
resistant to bottoming, thus letting the rider
obtain the desired initial SAG (see par. 5.4
SAG).
NOTE
Sometimes changing the oil height may be
necessary to obtain a perfect setting. Adjusting
the oil height should be conducted by an
authorized Marzocchi service center. Please
address to an authorized Marzocchi service
center if you require a different oil height
5.14 RC2X
This system is the evolution of RC2 system with
an extra X-cartridge on the left leg for the control
of the fork’s compression at travel end.
• Through the extension adjuster you can
control the fork’s rebound speed following
compression. By turning the adjuster
clockwise, you increase the hydraulic
damping making the fork slower during the
rebound phase. By turning the adjuster
counterclockwise, you reduce the hydraulic
damping making the fork more reactive during
the rebound phase.
• The compression adjustment is made
through a speed sensitive valve located at the
bottom of the right leg. By turning the adjuster
clockwise, you increase the hydraulic
damping during the compression phase. By
turning the adjuster counterclockwise, you
reduce the hydraulic damping during the
compression phase.
On the left leg, there is the X-cartridge which
lets you control the compression damping at
travel end.
• On models Z1 and 66 the preload is adjusted
by changing the positive air, while on models
888 this is made through the adjustment ring
